Two-Way Flexure of Steel-Deck-Reinforced Slabs
Publication: Journal of the Structural Division
Volume 105, Issue 6
Abstract
An elastically orthotropic finite element model with uniform thickness is developed that simulates the behavior of a structurally orthotropic steel-deck-reinforced concrete slab. The elastically orthotropic model accurately predicts the uncracked behavior of previously tested steel-deck-reinforced concrete slabs. The linear, elastic, uncracked behavior of a single panel of a typical steel-deck-reinforced concrete slab is examined for simply supported and fixed boundaries. Deflections and bending moments for two-way flexural action are compared with similar values for one-way bending. An expression is proposed for computing the optimum aspect ratio for a given orthotropic steel-deck-reinforced concrete slab. This study indicates that it is feasible to consider two-way action in the design of steel-deck-reinforced concrete slabs.
